Karoline ZENCZAK:
"Although it is quite difficult to express feelings about the whole tour, we all had a wonderful time and could experience also the tradition in India through your invitiations into your families. The way you hold your families together is more and more falling apart in westernized Europe. Thanks Biju for so many highlights."

" We all rechaed safely in Munich and went by train home. It was a great and wonderful journey. Thank you very much for your work. You did a lot for us. Very nice greetings and I will remember you and all we met in my prayers."
Dr. Bierbaum Hellmuth :
Rarely does one find a group of persons committed to the excellence of travel arrangements so as to permit practically no discomfort at all to first time travellers. The Glad tours achieves this distinction with top honours. This is a travel agency with a difference. Not only do they introduce the traveller to the adventure and delights of little-traversed territories, they also sensitize people to the pressing issues facing the planet - inviting participa
Ingeborg Hemberger:
The hotels were excellent, staff were friendly and helpful. The guide, Chris, was also excellent. He recognised the pace we wanted to go round the temples and adjusted his timetable as we went along. He didn't try and force us into tourist sales areas – well done!
Dr. Andreas :
Your programs have people at its core. The seven day spent with your team was a seven star experience, especially the cultural interaction and festival trails. Looking forward to visiting you all again
Gertrud PRANTL:
"We are just back in Austria today and just this mail to say thank you for the marvellous journey we had on the 10th of February. Great company with smiling staff and enjoyed a lot ! Tell all our congratulations to the tour Manager and the Guide of the Tour and hope to get another day maybe next year. Greetings from Austria "
Malecek Helga:
The tour was extremely well arranged adding us to visit all the places of particular interest to our experience of India. It was largely enhanced by the expert guidance of Chris who has tremendous knowledge coupled with enthusiasm and readiness to accommodate all our needs. Drivers & Sim were also extremely courteous & helpful adding to enjoyment of the tour.
Elena ( Cyprus ):
"We enjoyed very much our trip to Kerala and we have to say that it was the most organised and proffessional trip we ever had. Lopez is just amazing and a very nice guy and he would answer to anything we asked. We really enjoyed every moment in Kerala. Hoping to come back with kids some day.Thank u Jaimie"
Dr. Adolf Karlinger:
Many thanks for your work with us.We arrived in Austria well up.All people were very happy about all.May be I come next near again in January.
Seyrling Anneeliese :
The organisation was well communicated, punctual and no pressure was made to keep to a strict time-table, which made the excursions very relaxed. Our guide, Meanly, was very well informed and a pleasant personality.
"We were very pleased with the trip and found the assistance we received in both planning and execution of it to be top notch. The logistical aspects were particularly noteworthy and even now I marvel how well it went. Thanks James "
Elisabeth Metzler:
"We often think of you and the really good time in India! James, You did big work for us - Thank you again for everything!!! Today the members of "Father Edwins Group" were in the mass- wearing indian clothes: the people in Andelsbuch enjoyed it- especially the wonderful colours of your country!! We hope, you and your family are well!"
Brigitta Anna Rosa :
The pace of visiting many temples in the heat was just right. Very thoughtful and considered. The guide's German was very good and he was very informative about Kerala and Chennai in general. The tour and guide and hotel were all excellent, just wish we had had more time to see Kerala.
Mag. Dipl. Vw. Leitner Gregor :
I changed my itinerary twice and on both occasions your staff were outstandingly helpful – nothing was too much trouble for them, they made everything run smoothly for me, which is particularly nice if you are travelling alone. It is always difficult to single out one guide, when they have all been efficient, charming, interesting and courteous, but Lopez, my guide in Chennai, deserves special praise, both as a guide and as a person. He made me feel (as
Nikolaus Greiter :
Very personalized tour from as soon as we arrived in Kerala. Very interesting information including the history of India. Chris is a special person – he is delightful to speak to as well as letting us know about the city. We were very happy with everything – excellent guide, driver and full service all day. We will come back again!
Josef Ludwig:
If we had gone to Kerala as "regular" tourists we would never had had the opportunity to meet the people we did and learn as much from them as we did. So you provided us with an opportunity to be more "responsible" tourists, and we are grateful
Dr. Greiter :
The choice of places we visited, the knowledge of our guide – Chris – the quality of his German speaking and his ability to understand what information/facts we were interested in hearing about made a long day, a very informative one.

Except for this story.
Black Orchid, a two-parter that's a bit of a diversion, but it was needed, in my opinion, before the emotional-roller coaster known as Earthshock. A light-hearted adventure that you can sit down and relax to after doing a long shift of work, or even if you've come from a night about the town (like I did on the day I bought this.) The Fifth Doctor and Nyssa, the best Fifth Doctor combination, both get to shine here, Nyssa with Sarah Sutton's double role with Ann, finally giving Nyssa something to do in a story, and the Fifth Doctor, who shows off his amazing cricket skills, bringing a team back from a pathetic score (though I don't think even the Fifth Doctor could help England against Australia!)
And where the TARDIS crew get along? The scenes at Cranleigh Manor are easily some of my favourite of the Fifth Doctor era, where Tegan shows Nyssa some of the Earth dances and cheering on the Doctor in cricket, and Nyssa just looks more amused than ever at these bizarre rituals. Not to mention where they both gently mock Adric about his constant eating (how large are Alzarian stomachs anyway?) Adric for once is actually likeable.Read more ›
The Doctor lands the TARDIS at an Edwardian train depot, where he is mysteriously expected by some local chaps for a game of cricket. Only happy to oblige, the Doctor tags along with Adric, the boy genius, Tegan, the walking mouth, and Nyssa, the smart & cute orphan from Traken. This case of mistaken identity leads the crew into a manor mystery Agatha Christie-style and a fancy-dress ball. Nyssa meets her Earth-twin and a twisted "monster" who may not have her best interests at heart.
As is the way of things in the 5th Doctor's era, the incidental companions end up learning of the Doctor's true origins or of the TARDIS. This plot device has been replaced in the new series by the Doctor's psychic paper, so he doesn't have to waste precious story-time with answering questions about "how he got there."
What keeps Black Orchid from being a neat historical adventure?
As is the way of things in the 5th Doctor's era, the incidental companions end up learning of the Doctor's true origins or of the TARDIS. This plot device has been replaced in the new series by the Doctor's psychic paper, so he doesn't have to waste precious story-time with answering questions about "how he got there." This nearly pointless visit to the TARDIS takes away from the mystery of the period. Another mistake is the overly ambitious make-up team that in the lack of an alien, they must compensate with latex.
What makes Black Orchid work?Read more ›
Thankfully, there are a few selling points to recommend this title. One of these is the remastering team once again doing an amazing job on restoring the visuals. The outdoor scenes almost look like they were shot on 35mm film now, as opposed to 16mm that was likely used for most of the series's outdoor moments. They could have easily done a cheap job just to get it out there for completionists, but they brought their A-Game to this story and it shows.
Extras include a rather amusing commentary track by the cast, who have less than fond memories of shooting the story (especially the gals, who had to wear some semi-revealing costumes outdoors during an English October), and manage to have a laugh at its expense looking back. Also is another chapter of the interesting "Stripped for Action" series focusing on the comic book/strip at the time when it changed over from Baker to Davison's doctor. Interesting of note here is the interview with Dave "The Other Guy Responsible for Watchmen" Gibbons, who had an impressive run as the artist, and who apparently had a great deal of trouble at first capturing the Doctor's likeness, as previous Doctor's were easily caricatured, where Davison's face required far more subtlety. Some Blue Peter, info-text, a look at the restoration process, Now and Then showing how the locations have changed, and a really odd but interesting addition where Barry Took reads angry fan letters over the shows rescheduling at the time.Read more ›

The Old Fire Station also has a spare room available for artists who want to visit the Lake District.
The Old Fire Station is on Bridge Lane, Penrith CA11 8HY on the edge of the Penrith Hospital site. It's 17 minutes walk from Penrith Station.

5 Things You Didn't Know About "Mad Men"
It's been a week since the fifth season finale of "Mad Men" and my mind is still reeling. How could he…? Why did they…? And then that happened…?! (Don't worry: No spoiler alerts here.) I did, however, stumble upon Buzz Feed's list of 25 things you didn't know about the popular show and found myself almost coughing on my coffee at a few of them. So here it goes: Five interesting Mad Men factoids…
1. "Mad Men" was originally pitched to HBO and they rejected it. #bigmistake
2. Seven out of nine writers on the show are female; proof that working women have come a long way since the 1960's.
3. The $19K that Peggy left the company for turns out to be equivalent to $131K today. It's all making sense now.
4. Originally, Christina Hendricks auditioned for the role of Midge and Jon Hamm tried out for the part of Jack Donaghy (on "30 Rock," ultimately played by Alec Baldwin). Can you image Joan Holloway or Don Draper played by anyone else?
5. Mona, Roger Sterling's ex-wife, is John Slattery's wife in real life. I bet they have so much fun during outtakes.
Thanks! You're on our list.
And your life's about to get more interesting.

DOWN THE SHORE; Life Intrudes on Ocean Grove, Long a Well-Kept Shore Secret
By CAREN CHESLER
Published: April 1, 2001
OCEAN GROVE— It is 7:30 Sunday morning and the regulars have already gathered on a bench outside Ocean Grove Stationery on Main Avenue. They hold cigarettes between dirty fingernails and have nicknames like Jimbo, Boogie and the Professor.
Inside, Kevin Neal greets his customers by name. Mayor Joseph Krimko hovers near the counter, holding court. The latest controversy involves the Ocean Grove Homeowners Association, which is trying to block local developers from converting the old Chopin Hotel into luxury condominiums.
''If you replace all the old large buildings with neo-Victorians, you'll end up with a fancy Levittown,'' Mayor Krimko says. ''The whole business is ridiculous. It's about wanting to have it their way.''
Mr. Neal listens and then turns to his next customer, who tells him she is going to get an EKG on Wednesday.
''I hope you pass,'' he says.
Welcome to small town America, or more specifically, a small town on the Jersey Shore. Mr. Neal's newspaper store is in the heart of it. It is where all things meet, where information is exchanged, where arguments are started or finished. He hears about all of the domestic fights, bodies washing up on shore, even murders -- sometimes before the police are notified.
But life is changing in this town wedged between Asbury Park to the north and Bradley Beach to the south. Ocean Grove was one of the Jersey Shore's best-kept secrets before young professionals from North Jersey and New York City began snapping up homes. Housing prices have nearly doubled in the last couple of years, and agents have run out of listings. Some have even sent notices to homeowners enticing them to sell.
Even Mr. Neal, who has owned his store for 21 years, wants to cash in on the boom. He has already found a potential buyer.
''Five years ago, we might see the same client three or four weekends in a row and show them 5 to 10 houses and they still might not buy anything,'' said Judy Keller, an agent for James J. Pentz Realtors here. ''Now we say, 'I'll call you when something comes in.' ''
A one-bedroom bungalow about six blocks from the ocean sold in August 1996 for $76,000. Last summer, it was resold for $109,000 and is now under contract for $135,000. A two-family home four blocks from the ocean sold for $190,000 last month after being on the market only three days -- and even then there were five offers that went to sealed bid, with the owner receiving $5,000 more than the asking price.
Ms. Keller said that least year she had $5.7 million in sales in Ocean Grove alone, twice the usual average. ''People had all this cash from the stock market and didn't know what to do with it,'' she said.
People are drawn to the charm of Ocean Grove's gingerbread-encrusted Victorian houses. Downtown, there is a post office, bakery, cleaner, hardware store, hair salon, laundromat, florist, three banks, three lawyers and a dentist. The clock above the post office still chimes, and flyers for a pancake breakfast at St. Paul's Church are posted in store windows.
At the foot of Main Avenue is the ocean, giving the sense that the town is perched on the edge of the earth.
Founded in 1869 as a Methodist retreat, the church has always had a strong influence on municipal affairs. The Camp Meeting Association, an arm of the Methodist Church, still owns the land, and property owners receive a 99-year perpetual lease.
The Camp Meeting Association is an imposing force, most readily seen from Ocean Pathway, a grand boulevard lined with brightly painted Victorian houses that runs from the beachfront to the Great Auditorium, a 6,000-seat structure as large as a football field. A 20-foot cross -- a gift from Woody Allen, who used the building in his film ''Stardust Memories'' -- hangs from the auditorium steeple and is illuminated at night.
In the summer, church services are held in the auditorium, which is surrounded by 116 miniature houses that are half wood and half canvas. During July and August, the houses are dripping with petunias, lobelia and ferns. The tent houses are used by seasonal congregants, some of whom have had the leases in their families for four generations.
Until as recently as 1980, chains were strung across the two roads leading into town to keep cars from entering during the Sabbath. Even local residents had to move their vehicles to neighboring Asbury Park or Bradley Beach. It was not until Mr. Krimko, who was a police officer at the time, challenged the ordinance and prevailed.
''I still have the hate mail at home,'' said Mr. Krimko, a Jewish man who settled here after leaving Brooklyn and spending several years in Asbury Park, where his family owned a pharmacy. ''They ran the gamut of 'God bless you for doing this to God will punish you for doing this.' ''
When the case went to court, supporters of the law blocked the gates in protest, banging on windshields and spitting on cars that drove through during the Sabbath.
''These were the good Christian folks of Ocean Grove,'' Mr. Krimko lamented.
At that time, tourism in Ocean Grove was already waning. After racial disturbances in Asbury Park in 1970 and a subsequent middle-class exodus to the suburbs, tourists began traveling farther south, leaving hotels and boarding homes here empty.

Illinois Ponzi scheme fugitives caught in Arizona
Associated Press
TONOPAH, Ariz. (AP) – Nelson and Janet Hallahan were known around working-class Peoria, Ill., for their wealth, and flashed it. That, residents said, may have helped make their get-rich-quick scheme all the more believable.
Their scheme was anything but real. They had bilked investors out of $1.2 million and were destined for two prison cells. Except, just before they were supposed to report to jail, the couple skipped town 12 years ago.
They were finally captured Saturday in a sleepy Arizona desert town, where they lived in separate homes, introduced each other as friends, not spouses, did odd jobs and would eat out on 99-cent "Taco Tuesdays."
Authorities, acting on a tip from "America's Most Wanted," arrested the Hallahans in Tonopah, about 50 miles west of Phoenix.
"They were staying off the grid, living in a rural area, not really having things in their names," said Matt Hershey, a supervisory deputy U.S. marshal in Phoenix. "They were just trying to lay low."
In court Monday, the couple, their wrists and ankles shackled, agreed to be extradited to Illinois.
Mike Waters, a Peoria attorney whose late uncle Jim Waters was among the Hallahans' victims, said he plans to be there when the couple next appears in an Illinois courtroom.
"These were working class people of modest means who invested their entire life savings," he said of the victims. "Most of them were retired and didn't have much chance to recover."
Like all Ponzi schemes, the Hallahans promised significant returns on investments and paid early investors with money they received from newer ones, authorities said.
In the 1990s, the sight of Janet Hallahan in her expensive clothes and jewelry didn't bother residents and may have helped sell their scheme because everybody could see how well the couple was doing, Waters said, who represented his uncle, a former postal worker, in a victims' lawsuit after the Hallahans filed for bankruptcy.
It later became shockingly clear what they were doing and what it had cost their victims. "While they were doing all this extravagant stuff they were wiping out people making $30,000, $40,000 a year," said Waters, who heard stories of the two walking around town in fur coats.
The Hallahans pleaded guilty to federal charges of conspiracy to commit mail and bank fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering and then disappeared in January 2000.
The couple lived in several Southwest states under several aliases, authorities said. John Walsh, the host of "America's Most Wanted," said the show received multiple tips after it ran a segment Friday.
Hershey said authorities hadn't determined why they were living in separate homes. He said investigators hadn't found evidence suggesting they had run any schemes in recent years.
He said there was no evidence that the pair had obtained gainful employment.
"I had absolutely no idea. If I had known, I would have been first in line to turn them in," said Harold Clark, who rented a room in his home to Janet Hallahan for more than two years.
When U.S. marshals asked for her, he said he told them they had the wrong house.
"`Nobody lives here by that name,'" he recalled saying. "They said: `You may know her as D.J.'"
To neighbors and residents of Tonapah, the Hallahans were D.J. Lee and Howard Wheeler. They were quiet and minded their own business but would also chat with neighbors.
According to Clark, Janet Hallahan didn't move in with much other than clothes and small items. He described her as "just an absolute, straight-up person, just a hardworking person."
Clark said Janet Hallahan always paid her rent on time. She sometimes cooked and cleaned around the house and was good with his three dogs.
Since she didn't own a car, Nelson Hallahan would pick her up and they would go do home repair jobs. Neither gave off the impression of living extravagantly, he said.
Clark said they would sometimes go out to dinner at a nearby restaurant for "Taco Tuesdays."
He said most of his conversations with them were general and didn't delve into their background.
Fred Wolf, Janet Hallahan's next-door neighbor, said he was shocked the woman who occasionally invited him over for coffee was actually living in hiding.
Wolf said Nelson Hallahan would pick her up and they'd go paint houses. They never gave any indication they had any wealth. "They looked poor as church mice," he said.
"I always thought she was a little more well-bred than the average Tonopah gal," he said.
Wolf said he's equally stunned the two are married. "I never suspected it, except the times they argued like a husband and wife do. There was never a hint of any affection that I could detect," Wolf said.
Darilynn Knauss, a Peoria-based federal prosecutor, said it is highly unlikely anyone will see any money from the Hallahans.
"The money's gone," she said.
Knauss said the Hallahans are each facing a maximum sentence of 25 years for the charges they skipped out on and up to 10 years in prison for failing to appear for sentencing.
Hershey said he hoped the capture of the Hallahans would offer some solace. "If nothing else, their arrest will allow these victims some closure," he said.

Ladies, do you realize that it is now March, and our babies are due in June- only two months stand between March and June!
What do you still have left to do to get ready for this baby? What's taken care of?
How are you feeling about it all???
Personally... I'm super excited it's March, because this is the month I go home! Only 23 days now! We're going to miss my DH terribly... but, he and I have done this separation before, so I know we'll be ok. And we'll try to skype every day so DD still gets to see him. I'm just looking forward to living in the States for 4 months again so very much!
I feel like everything that needs to be done is still ahead of me... like, meeting my midwife, buying stuff (the only thing we have so far is a car seat)...I don't know...everything! I also do feel like there is a lot less I need to prepare or buy for this kid- especially since we don't know the sex. There are a few purchases we'll be making like another high chair, a second Ergo, a portable swing that are for this baby specifically, but, they can really all still wait a while!
Emotionally, I'm not going to lie... I'm having a really hard time. I am not doing well parenting DD right now- I think she's being a pretty normal almost-2 year old, and it just turns out this is a VERY hard stage for me to parent. So every day is lots of battles with her, and it's very draining for me. I'm trying my best, and doing some reading and turning to others for advice to try to get through it, but, it is honestly really starting to worry me how I'll deal with both kids once Kong arrives. I know I'll have two moths of help while we're in the States, and before my DH goes back to work- but come August, we'll be back in Laos with no one to help us and I'll be on my own at home with the two of them. I have always loved kids, have worked in day cares, etc... but this is suddenly all very hard on me. So I'm worried. I'm actually worried that I might push DD away when the baby is born, because I just prefer newborns/babies over toddlers. Again, I'm glad I'll have lots of people around to help, and to give her lots of special attention.
I am however, really enjoying my pregnancy still, and SUPER looking forward to birth and having a newborn. That stuff is all my favorite.

DVD: The Flying Scotsman (1929) | Film reviews, news & interviews
DVD: The Flying Scotsman (1929)
The locomotive movie which inspired The Lady Vanishes and The 39 Steps
It is, of course, a masterpiece - not Castleton Knight's primitive 1929 British talkie, but Sir Nigel Gresley's LNER Class A3 4472 Flying Scotsman, which iconic steam locomotive is currently being refurbished for commissioned runs in the spring. It enjoyed its inaugural London-Edinburgh journey on 1 May, 1928, and so excited the public that it generated a silent comedy-thriller, to which sound was added in 1930. The talking scenes, introduced halfway through, weigh down the story but sound effects enhance the thrilling train action that was shot with Gresley's co-operation.
Moore Marriott, best known as Will Hay's ancient foil in the railway classic Oh, Mr Porter! (1937) and other Hay comedies, plays Old Bob, a 30-year veteran driver of the express service (which started in 1862). The day before retiring, he shops his stoker Crow (Alec Hurley) for drinking on duty. His place is taken by jeering rookie footplateman Jim (24-year-old Ray Milland in his debut), who the night before Bob's final run is rescued from a dancehall fracas by the driver's daughter, Joan (Pauline Johnson), though neither knows the other's identity; kisses ensue. That this refined beauty was sitting alone in what looks suspiciously like a clip joint adds unintended frisson.
With the Scotsman hurtling north the following day, Bob bashes Jim on the head after discovering he's Joan's lover, while vengeful saboteur Crow sets up a catastrophe. There's amazing stunt work by Johnson - in cloche and high heels! - and Hurley edging along the outside of a carriage that shames the back-projected Robert Donat (on the Scotsman) and Michael Redgrave in Hitchock's The 39 Steps and The Lady Vanishes respectively. (Those are just two entries in the school of 1930s British train films that The Flying Scotsman partly inspired.)
Knight, who later produced documentaries about the 1948 Olympics and the Queen's Coronation, made expressive transitional use of steam and dissolves. He was blessed by his collaboration with Theodor Sparkuhl, a former Eastern Front newsreel cameraman who had shot many of Ernst Lubitsch's Berlin silents before heading to Hollywood via England. His use of trackside low-angles, long shots of the speeding train and close work in, around and under the cab makes The Flying Scotsman a must for train buffs, though its appeal is general.
The DVD release of this exquisitely restored picture follows its premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival last Saturday. Sadly, there are no extras.

AbstractLoss-Of-Control-In-flight (LOC-I) has been a longstanding contributor to fatal aircraft accidents. However, recent high-profile incidents, including Colgan Air Flight 3407 and Air France Flight 447, have underscored the importance of mitigating the LOC-I risk. In both of these incidents, it is clear that improper energy management was one of the precipitating factors that led to eventual loss of controlled flight. In order to reduce the potentially devastating effects of a mismanaged energy condition, Barron Associates has teamed with SA technologies to design and demonstrate an energy state protection system. The system pairs Barron Associates' proven optimization and control technologies with SA Technologies' situation-awareness-driven interfaces. Although built upon innovative ideas and algorithms, the proposed system focuses on the cardinal duty of "aviate" through pilot interaction and automated energy management. The energy state protection system: (1) models the dynamic evolution of the energy state and the energy requirements of the aircraft with flight phase, (2) determines an effective allocation of available flight controls to correct an off-nominal energy state and maintain safe operating margin, and (3) ensures that the crew is brought back into the "aviate" loop through effective alerting thus minimizing adverse pilot interactions with the automated components. Pilot-in-the-loop simulator testing will be used to demonstrate the benefits of energy state protection system and will pave the way for limited-envelop flight testing in Phase II and expanded-envelop flight testing in Phase III.

Freedomworks, a national tea party group, spent the week circulating petitions for congressional hearings and encouraging leaders of local groups who believe they have been targeted by the IRS to include their story on a national database to build the case against the agency.
"Perhaps all this attention will break something loose," said Jim Chiodo, an activist from Holland, Mich.
It wasn't long ago that the tea party was the hot new political kid on the block, bursting onto the national scene during the contentious summer debate over health care in 2009. Over the next few years, the loosely affiliated conservatives and civil libertarians would leave their mark on the 2010 elections by helping Republican candidates win Senate races in Florida, Kentucky, Utah and Wisconsin and scores of House races.
Those victories resulted in House and Senate Republican caucuses getting pushed to the right in legislative battles, making life difficult for Obama and his Democrats in an era of divided government.
But the movement's success was muted in 2012 when Republicans nominated the establishment-backed Mitt Romney for president, though he did little to inspire the tea party. He lost, and so did many tea party-backed House and Senate candidates.
Now, tea party activists say they are emboldened and won't be afraid to recruit candidates to run in Republican primaries against incumbents who appear to go easy on the Obama administration, particularly in light of the IRS scandal.
"It's one of those issues we should just raise hell about," said Nashville Tea Party leader Ben Cunningham.
Some say they're now even more suspicious of government than before.
"I personally feel so vindicated," said Mark Falzon, a New Jersey tea party leader. But he added: "What's scaring me now is what's going on below the water line that we're not seeing."
Republicans say that the tea party will have an opportunity come 2014 to make its mark again, particularly with Obama not at the top of the ticket. Also, they say that with Obama's health care law going into effect and with the slew of latest controversies, they now have concrete issues to point to when arguing against government overreach.
"Suddenly, this is a very real demonstration of too much power ceded to government bureaucrats," said Matt Kibbe, president of Freedomworks. "This is no longer theoretical."

Why go to a dingy pool hall when theres BARLEYS SPORTS BAR AND LOUNGE? In the heart of downtown, its a bar, restaurant and live-music venue with a 22-table pool room. An easygoing location with a pleasant, neighborhood vibe, the sturdy tables offer pockets of competitive fun. Lets hope the charm of Barleys remains the same as the surrounding area continues to morph daily. Rack em up, Joe, and stay awhile.

District 48 was established in 1876 as the "Beaverton Elementary School District", serving grades 1-8. Over the years it merged with other elementary districts and finally in July 1960 with the Beaverton High School District to create one unified school district.[9] The district has followed the trends throughout the US, establishing schools for 7th–9th grades in the mid 1960s (to make a 6-3-3 system) and then 1994 moving 6th into middle schools and 9th grades back to high school to form the current 5-3-4 configuration.[10]
The Beaverton School District's school-age population grew by 44% in the 1990s, however only by 14% in the 2000s. Along with this the median age in the district increased from 33.3 in 2000 to 35.3 in 2010. The total population of the area under the district's jurisdiction was 253,198 as of the 2010 census.[11]

Middle schools[edit]
The Beaverton School District operates eight middle schools housing 6th, 7th, and 8th grades.
Cedar Park[edit]
Cedar Park, located on Park Way, was built in 1965 as the district's fourth middle school. It was first opened during the 1965–66 school year for seventh graders only, with an enrollment of 343; however construction was not complete until 1966. It opened for all grades beginning with the 1966 school year.[10] The school's mascot is the Timberwolves, and its current principal is Kenneth (also known as Ken) Struckmeier. Enrollment for the 2014 school year was 1,043, up from 968 the previous year. This school offers electives such as Drama, Band, Choir, Physical Education and Spanish, along with a more advanced Spanish class for native speakers.[citation needed][10][12][13]

A. White and A.C. Bedford, New York investors who were directors of the railway. Whitford station closed when the railway stopped running around 1920, however the name stuck. The school itself opened in 1963 to grades 7 and 8.[19] Whitford's mascot is the Coachmen, and its principal is Aaron Persons. 2014 enrollment was 681, up from 680 in 2013.[12]

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) causes varying symptoms and can include:
These symptoms tend to come and go and are often helped by medical treatments, changes to diet and psychological support.
What can the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Service provide?
We can provide management recommended by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE).
These include:
Please also see our leaflets on medical and clinical hypnosis and CBT for further information.
What should I expect when I come to the clinic?
The doctor will make an initial assessment. Once the assessment is completed they will discuss which approaches are most helpful to enable you to manage your condition. This may include:
Psychological support is offered in weekly sessions, either in a group or on an individual basis. Sessions focus on understanding symptoms, learning strategies to self-manage symptoms and reducing the impact the condition has on day-to-day life. Patients will be expected to use and practise these self-management skills between sessions. The number of sessions varies from six to twelve.
About the team
Patients are assessed by a psychological therapist. Other members of the team include a specialist dietician and therapists trained in hypnosis and CBT. The IBS Service works with the UCLH Functional Gastroenterology Unit to provide a high standard of care to patients diagnosed with IBS.
